The Alfa Blue Team talks about its first fifty years ...Half a century of age is an important milestone for anyone. You imagine when the celebrations are not for one person, but for a passion. Passion that, for fifty years, has united the members of the Alfa Blue Team, one of the most famous Alfa Romeo collectors' clubs in Italy and abroad. Born in 1972 by Gippo Salvetti, Stefano Salvetti, Emilio and Giorgio Garavaglia, Claudio Bonfioli and Guido delli Ponti, it has, over the years, always “gathered” new friends and hosted fans from all over the world. Password: A.B.T., Alfa Romeo, Beauty, Tradition ... And so today, fifty years later, the Members can blow out the coveted fifty candles in front of an audience of Alfa Romeo cars (but not only, also trucks, aircraft engines, etc.), mainly born after the war until 1986, year in which Alfa entered Fiat orbit, without forgetting the dear friends who are no longer there today but who have given so much to the Club. An extraordinary story for all those who love (beautiful) cars, collected in a volume of 360 pages and 760 photographs.

Fucina publisher was founded in 2001 by Gippo Salvetti, born in Milan in 1952.
Fucina publishes books about the world of cars and motorbikes which aim to provide something different from the clichéd works offered by other Italian editors.
Fucina has launched a series of books that narrate the car and motorcycle scene from a whole new angle, making them less of a history lesson and a far more enjoyable read - yet without skimping on accurate research.
In addition to books of narrative in Italian, Fucina has also published books in English, French and Spanish.
Among these "Fifteen Times", biography sample Giacomo Agostini, "doctorcosta" by Dr. Claudio Costa, the doctor of racers of MotoGP, "Grand Prix College" and "Marco's victory".
In addition to narrative, Fucina also publishes a series of illustrated books that stand out on account of their curious subject matter.
These books are bilingual, with Italian and English text. The first of the series is "Alfazioso", a delicious blend of images and words that gives an ironic account of the whimsical world inhabited by an Alfa Romeo collector.
Were later published "Alfazioso2", "Curiosalfa", "100X100 cento alfa per cen'tanni" (a hundred Alfa in hundred years), and "Alfavelate".
